Have you watched him prior to that play? Come on.

Naz Reid is pathetic. Give him a flopping tech for that bull.

Even the JB fanatics can see this, right?

He’s the only one that can do anything. Jrue can’t hit the ocean tonight, KP is in foul trouble and Tatum is getting clamped by McDaniels

This was the one concern. How do we handle physicality. Not looking good.

Tatum is 3rd on our team in shot attempts. That has to change for us to win this.

Doesn't have to be a one-pass thing. Move the ball, trust the ball keeps moving after that. He's drawing two consistently and not passing at all.

National Lampoon's Bad Holiday

- Holy Marcus Smart flashbacks: Stop shooting Dude, you're killing the team.

- Horford has been garbage in this game and provides almost no offense.

- I'd rather see PP out there than many of the other bench players.

- McDaniels is turtling Tatum, sadly. Nice defensive effort.

- Mazzulla is being severely out coached in this game. What a shock!

- But the Minny bench is vastly superior to the Celtics, so Stevens needs to make some improvements.

Damn, seems like KP needs to do a better job of keeping his emotions in check.

He was frustrated that he got blocked by Gobert. So he smacks Reid in the face.

And he's already got 3 technicals this season.

Gotta keep your cool, KP.
Nothing wrong with having a different opinion - as long as it's done respectfully. It'd be lame if we all agreed on everything :)
